Game title of the week, nay, year has to be Let Go Of My Banana. That's the name of Artificial Life's new game, which sees you playing a cheeky monkey called Punky Mo. Presumably his parents were Sex Pistols fans.

The game sees you stealing bananas from King Bing over the course of four mini-games. Escape! has you, yes, escaping from the King's jungle jail, while Treetop Chase is all about scampering through the treetops avoiding guards. They're monkeys too, by the way. It's Simians only in this game.

Coconut Head has you trying to crack the coconut off Punky Mo's head so he can see again (we assume it got stuck on AFTER he ran through the treetops), while Banana Shooter involves firing bananas into King Bing's mouth to stop him attacking you.

We're a bit unsure about that last one. If you're nicking the king's banana's, surely you don't want to chuck too many at his mush? Logic aside, Let Go Of My Banana looks like it may live up to its marvellous name.
